Planetwaves clip-on mini-tuners. I'm really digging it. It uses one of those nickel-sized watch batteries like a SEGA SATURN does. Do you guys have a NICKEL equivalent in the UK - like a pentapence or a squib or rupee or an Imperial decicred or whatever?

Best Buy was doing a clearance on these guitar accessories packs with 20 medium gauge picks, a pack of strings, a 10' cable, polishing cloth, restringing tool, and one of these - ALL FOR NINE BUCKS. I got three.

It's a pretty great little tuner. I don't normally like stick-on accessories like pick dispensers or that, but these have a good radness-to-obtrusiveness ratio, and that's crucial. I'm leaving one on my SHADOWMASTER for now so I don't always have to use my phone's tuner app, because my amp wigs out with interference from my phone.

Yo, if anyone wants a restringing tool (pin puller, winder, and cutter all in one), holla at ya boy.

I've got two, one of the old one and a new one. I really like them. The new one is even smaller and a bit more accurate so it lives on my Eastman hollowbody.

Slim enough for six on a side spacing? How much you want for it?

I use one of the exact same make on my Fenders, so yes. Yours for the cost of shipping. PM me.
